Binding arbitration is an out-of-court procedure for resolving disputes in which a specially trained lawyer officiates the hearing which is like a trial in some ways but proceeds expeditiously, with less formality and expense. It is referred to as binding arbitration as the award is binding and has the same effect as a court judgment.
